Title: God's Will for Mankind
Contents:
Today, we want to share the grace of God by examining what God's will for mankind is.
All mankind will have eternal life.
Jesus says that He came to this earth to do the will of God (John 6:38-40). God's will is that all people should be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4).
We must not forget that God chose Israel first so that it might become a trumpet for mankind, and that God gave and blessed the Korean Peninsula is also to make it a trumpet of the gospel.
It is the holy life of the saved saint.
The second will of God for mankind is “the holiness of the saints” (1 Thessalonians 4:3). In the Bible, there are so many words about the holy life of the saints centered on the Ten Commandments that it forms a mountain.
It is a life of thanksgiving and joy of the saints who have received eternal life.
God wants the saints to live a life of thanksgiving in the world, and he delights in living a life full of joy in the faces and hearts of the saints. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in everything, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
It is to testify of the gospel.
Matthew 28:19-20 “Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you; behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the world.” ”
Acts 1:8 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and to the ends of the earth.”
The most beautiful faith of believers is to live according to the will of the Lord. As the Lord ascended to heaven, He commanded us to live witnessing the gospel in Jerusalem, at the ends of the earth, at any time and everywhere, whether we live or die, in our busy times or in our spare time.
As a saved saint, strive to lead a holy life according to God's will, rejoice always, give thanks in all circumstances, pray without ceasing, and live a life of witnessing the gospel in time and out of season. .
